[WilkinsOlajuwon]

Is the world going to end if Pac is around #3?

SSM was never no3.

Yeah cuz you're delusional if you beat a top 5 guy to in the top 5.Once you got knocked out youre over just like that guy Joe Louis or what was his name....Now on the other hand if you duck your mandatories and say belts don't make you and wait for your rival to be sent into extended plank time by a another dude your the p4p king the best ever!!!

As I recall, after Louis beat Braddock for the title in '37, his first order of business was avenging his KO loss - and he did.

What exactly has Pacquiao done?

[NearHypnos]

You didn't think Bradley was top 5 p4p but you rank 2 top 5 p4p fighters at 122 division, yet you can't name them.

You really need me to say "Nonito"? Santa Cruz only has potential he need not be named. But yes, rigo and nonito are top p4p talent. And no I dont think Bradley was top 5. Personally, i hold the 5 I named in higher esteem than I do Bradley. He might have an official win over Pac and a victory over Prov due ti a missed call but thats enough for me to see that he isnt p4p top 5.


Bradley was conveniently not top 5 p4p to many til this Pac fight got made.

Bottom line, he isnt as good in his weight class as Wlad, Floyd, ward, rigo, or martinez(??? Here but til proven otherwise lets not pretend he hasnt put in work)... Again, this is just my opinion as most p4p lists are but I dont think The top 5 listed are all that disputable... Imo..

Bull****. That was no robbery. That was a close fight that could have gone either way. Only Pac-tards think that fight was a robbery.


Lets stop with the revisionist history. Marquez was only down by *1* round.


Provodniko has gone on to win a title @ 140 and prove himself better than Rios.

Rios was coming off of a LOSS and was *unranked* @ 147. In the grand scheme of things, the Rios win is less than *meaningless*.


More revisionist history. Of the three, Marquez has the most impressive recent win, and Bradley just dropped a close UD to the guy Marquez quite impressively KTFO'ed. That's how I can have Marquez P4P #5 - above Pacquaio and Bradley.

And lets stop all the Marquez "being on his way to a TKO loss" bull****. In four fights, Pacquiao hasn't come close to KO'ing Marquez and hasn't scored a knockout in *5* years...

This is the *dumbest* post i've seen in *5* years.
You have said some of the dumbest things I've ever heard in this thread.
You started this thread by saying losses matter and then put a guy coming off a loss ahead of a guy coming off 2 wins, one being against the p4p #3 fighter. And Pacquaio-Bradley 1 was a robbery, the only people who think it wasn't are morons.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

1 Floyd
2 ward
3 rigo
4 manny
5 jmm
6 wlad


I can't think of 5 or 6 guys that are better than manny right now, there are a few, but not 5 or 6

you're ****ing 14yrs old...give it a rest

You think Pacquiao's #3 ranking is bad but use this one as a defense? He had one good win in the 3 years before this ranking and the two fights before that he beat a past it Ricardo Mayorga and lost to Cotto. Then he didn't win another fight for 4 years after Margarito

[IronDanHamza]

SSM was never no3. He was last generations fighter when FLoyd fought him. SSM was considered no3 on the basis of beating Margarito now come on.

Mosley was universally considered P4P #3 at the time.

[A-Wolf]

This is what fans of one particular fighter do. They are not boxing fans just plain groupie kind of fans. They will swallow everything including Floyd's juice.

90% of NSB.
